Abstract This position paper explores the nature and role of two bio-inspired paradigms, namely Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) and Swarm Intelligence (SI). We argue that there are...
Abstract. Artificial immune systems (AISs) are problem-solving systems inspired by the biological immune system. They have been successfully applied to a number of problem domains ...
In a previous paper the authors argued the case for incorporating ideas from innate immunity into artificial immune systems (AISs) and presented an outline for a conceptual framewo...
Within immunology, new theories are constantly being proposed that challenge current ways of thinking. These include new theories regarding how the immune system responds to pathog...
Current models of the immune system have proven capable of reproducing the dynamics of the immune system response. However, they lack of formalisms (including semantics) to underst...
Proteins are the driving force in development (embryogenesis) and the immune system. Here we describe how a model of proteins designed for evolutionary development in computers can...
An immune system without tissue is like evolution without genes. Something very important is missing. Here we present the novel concept of tissue for artificial immune systems. Muc...
The analogy between Immune Systems and Intrusion Detection Systems encourage the use of Artificial Immune Systems for anomaly detection in computer networks. This paper describes ...
